Find the amplitude, period, and phase shift for each function, and sketch its graph. y= sin A(x-pi/4)
\n" ); document.write( "**
\n" ); document.write( "Equation for sin function: y=Asin(Bx-C), A=amplitude, Period=2π/B, Phase shift=C/B
\n" ); document.write( "For given equation: y= sin A(x-pi/4)
\n" ); document.write( "Amplitude: (not given, but assume=1)
\n" ); document.write( "B=1
\n" ); document.write( "Period=2π/B=2π
\n" ); document.write( "Phase shift = C/B=(π/4)/1=π/4 (shift to right)
\n" ); document.write( "..
\n" ); document.write( "Graphing for one period:
\n" ); document.write( "Without a phase shift, given sin curve can be plotted with the following points on an (x,y) coordinate system:
\n" ); document.write( "(0,0), (π/2,1), (π,0), (3π/2,-1), (2π,0)
\n" ); document.write( "With a phase shift of π/4 unit to the right, the foregoing points will change as follows:
\n" ); document.write( "(π/4,0), (3π/4,1), (5π/4,0), (7π/4,-1), (9π/4,0)
\n" ); document.write( "plot these points and you will get a graph of the given function. \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
